Bath repair in Dobs Hill without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We’re often asked to fix a hole punched through by something heavy and snagging damage from a refit, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Questions from Dobs Hill
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do you cover Dobs Hill?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Dobs Hill and the rest of Flintshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Dobs Hill.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Are there extra charges for Dobs Hill?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
What affects the price in Dobs Hill
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Dobs Hill get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dobs Hill as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- We leave the room as we found it
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
